I was born in 1980 and have fond memories of drive in movie theaters as a kid, but by the time I had my driver’s license they were all but gone. You had to travel to find one. Travel I did, ended up in Canada with my girlfriend at the time and had my 95 eclipse with a couple of mtx blue thunder subwoofers. We caught a double feature found a discrete spot and watched Austin Powers 3 and the new Scooby Doo movie after that. I remember having a sense of urgency to smoke as much weed as possible because we were heading home the day after next. That must’ve been back in 2002. That’s the last drive in that I went to. It was in Prince Edward Island .
I just looked it up and this place is still in operation. I would love to go back.

I did a drive in movie experience event at a golf course once. We set up a portable 20 foot screen with a PA system for sound. Attendees picked up a cart and then drove out behind the clubhouse where we had the screen set up. And when our kids were little we used to get together with the neighbors, put a sheet up on their garage door and I'd bring my projector over and we did movie nights in the driveway. It wasn't just us, other neighbors would often show up too.
Edit: Forgot to add, this is the setup I have in the Ninja Cave.
